I've been happily using MRTG since times when it wasn't regarded as ancient. ;) I can't imagine Munin being easier than MRTG for writing plugins, MRTG just runs a script that outputs 2 numbers. I might give Munin a go though and see if it does things better. I really should get graphing going on the LUV server. Also is there interest in a Beginners' SIG event on running Munin? That would probably go well with one on Mon. We could do Nagios on the same day if someone wants to teach that (I won't). -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
